I have 2 HD in my system. Disk 0 (master) has Windows 98,
2000, and 2000 Advanced server. Disk 1 used to be a
master on another computer and has Windows XP. I use Boot
magic to boot to one of the 3 OS on Disk 0. When I tried
to load Windows XP from Bootmagic, I the application seems
to crash. Is there anyway to make Windows XP bootable
from the second HD? HAs it anything to do with the
bbot.ini file?

Advise greatly appreciated.

Many thanks

I'm not certain about later versions of Boot Magic but I know some
earlier versions had problems with setting up the boot menu to boot an
OS from the second hard drive.

You might consider instead to obtain BootIt Next Generation which is
also a boot manager in addition to being a partition manager and being
able to make images. BootIt Next Generation can easily setup a boot
from any hard drive or any partition. Go here:

It's shareware. You can use the fully functional version for 30 days.
